    I saw one of those GT40's on the highway one day. It hit the gas and disappeared from sight. Even after it was out of sight the motor roared and echoed all over. It was amazing.

    Ford gave my local SVTOA Chapter an up close and personal view of the GT. They had it on a lift and everything. It doesn't have any spoilers except the diffuser in the rear and a chin splitter up front. The bottom is covered in panles with dimples like a golf ball. It literally sucks itself to the ground like the LeMans Prototype cars that run the 24 Hours of LeMans.

    If I had the money, I'd have one in the driveway right now.

    Very cool pics!!

    Thanks Russ/Mark!

    I do have one question: I see that the 300.2 isnt on the board with the other 2 amps. Is it now officially no more?

    On second look Shack it is too short and rounded at the corners to be an 63 Impala.

    I'm not sure other than the amplifier line is being revamped without the Momo ID. They wanted to make it easier to choose the amps based on the various speaker lines. Apparently there was a little confusion when you bought a dB speaker if there was a dB amp, beings the Momo line was independent. I tried to word that as best I could....did it make sense?

    Very interesting. That does make sense. The Momo amps were originally designed for the MM6 and was a perfect match. I think its a good idea to put together a new lineup that better matches the current lineup of speakers.

    Cant wait to see the new lineup!
